Q 50: What is the opposite of "Oneness of the Lordship of Allah"?
A--- The opposite is to worship others besides Allah. This implies attributing divine qualities to anyone else. It particularly implies associating partners in worship with Allah or believing that the source of power, harm or blessing is from others besides Allah. Almighty Allah says:
{Whatever of mercy (i.e. of good), Allah may grant to mankind, none can withhold it; and whatever He may withhold, none can grant it thereafter. And He is the All-Mighty, the All-Wise. 0 Mankind! Remember the Grace of Allah upon you! Is there any creator other than Allah who provides for you from the sky (rain) and the earth? La ilaha ilIa Huwa (none has the right to be worshipped but He). How then are you turning away (from Him)?}. Allah the Almighty says: {And if Allah touches yo
(Fatir, 2, 3)
u with hurt, there is none who can remove it but He, and if He intends any good for you, there is none who can repel His Favor which He causes it to reach whomsoever of His slaves He wills}.
(Yunus, 107)
Allah the Almighty says:
{Say: "Tell me then, the things that you invoke besides Allah - if Allah intended some harm for me, could they remove His harm? Or if He (Allah) intended some mercy for me, could they withhold His Mercy?" Say "Sufficient for me is Allah,. in Him those who trust (i.e. believers) must put their trust}.
(Az-Zurnar, 38)
Allah the Almighty says: {And with Him are the keys of the Ghaib (all that is hidden), none knows them but He}.
(Al-An 'am, 59)
Allah the Almighty says: {Say: "None in the heavens and the earth knows the Ghaib (Unseen) except Allah, nor can they perceive when they shall be resurrected}.
(An-Naml, 65)
Allah the Almighty says: (And they will never compass anything of His Knowledge except that which He wills}.
(Al-Baqarah, 255)
Allah's Messenger (Peace be upon him) says: "Allah, the Exalted and Glorious, said: Glory is His lower garment and Majesty is His cloak and (Allah says:) He who contends with Me in regard to them I shall torment him ".
